Over the weekend I visited with some friends. A married couple with a new baby...who actually introduced my husband and I years ago. I invited them over to my new place. We chatted about the baby, their jobs, my job, what I've been up to, yadda yaddda yadda. Then, inevitably, the question was asked.
"So, how are things with you and (husband's name)?"
Ah! So down to the nitty gritty huh? Ok, I can do this.
"Well, we're still talking, going out, and getting along fairly well. We're going to re visit everything in September and make a decision then. One way or the other, I need to move on and he knows that."
They seemed so glad that I didn't break down or tear up like I used to. My girlfriend said,
"You seem to be ok with whatever is going to happen. That's so great to see! You seem much stronger and happier now."
It was nice to hear her say that. It's even better to really feel it, too.
